"We must take care not to delude ourselves. All beliefs are founded on some kind of “voluntary” mind control technique. In other words, we are easily susceptible to believe what we want to believe, and thus we must take care not to loose sight of the goal of truth in our 'self-realisation'." -- CygnusX1

Please do vote to help balance skews from vote-bots. YouTube should really do a much better job of throttling 3 standard-deviation moves on such metrics. Legitimate big pops can be anticipated by content creators and account holders could temporarily disarm such circuit breakers when the situation merits.
